The delivery comprises major upgrades to the stock preparation system and various improvements in several parts of the board machine. The contracts include delivery and installation of machines and equipment. The project will see debottlenecking of one of the existing production lines, by utilizing the scheduled maintenance breaks.

The investment will drive profitable growth in segments such as liquid packaging board and coated unbleached kraft. It will boost the packaging board production capacity at the facility by around 100,000 tonnes per annum to 900,000 tonnes per annum. In addition, it is expected to further improve the site’s flexibility and competitiveness.
